in terms of achieving the same amount of deficit reduction over the 10-year window. just use the budge -- budget committees and budge budget process to enforce this. to come up with reforms that achieve certain spending or revenue targets. the tpc's analysis is the kind of analysis we're going to need to be able to recycle as we go. it is the kind of analysis we need because it tells us something about what each can looks like in its present form. it tells us do we really want to use this can like this or do we need to melt it down and reshape it and use it for different parts of the whole system? and we're going to need more of these analyses. we'll need more analyses not just the distributional effects but the tradeoffs. for example if we want to keep tax cuts low, we need to broaden the base. what are some different tradeoffs if i want to lower the rates by 10%, how much am i going to have to broad the base. what are the most progressive elements of that? tax policy center will be busy in the next year is what i predict and, i think that what wee need to do is kee

those cuts are going to require compromise and a different kind of deficit reduction plan. given all of those jobs how can you continue to say no to any type of revenue increase even if it is paired with a great degree of spending cuts? >> there's a lot of things that can be done to get the fiscal house and ordered in washington. i have posted this deal last summer because i saw this as being another example of washington leaders not making decisions, pushing off decisions yet another commission which if it failed, and it did come in would have devastating cuts to the paramount responsibilities of the federal government, which is the national defence as well as endangered in so many for 20,000 technologies and defense jobs here in virginia. what we need to do in my view is repealed and replace obamacare that will save over a trillion dollars in spending and that is harmful for business we ought to get places there is redundancy in the accountability office has put forth and i think we ought to embrace the ideas that come from the federal government employees and reword them

back then in 1988, democrats were in the middle of a 30-year, 35-point deficit when it came to voter trust on national security. that security gap began in the aftermath of the vietnam war and persisted very stubbornly until about 2008 when it closed up due mostly to republican mistakes. voters were tired of the iraq war, tired of the kind of blundering that they had perceived in the bush administration and decided that both parties, there was kind of a pox on both houses. what's been very interesting -- and third way has been partnering with our own polling and focus groups for the last seven years -- is that if you look at this slide, that's the security gap. if you extend it out to the left, it gets wide and absolutely consistent going all the way back to about 1972. but you could see where it closed up in '07-08 because of the iraq war, and now it's closed up again. and the interesting thing about that is it's at zero now because we have a president who has had an enormously successful first term when it comes to national security. when we did focus groups on this with swing vote
